Programs Use cases

From MoodleDocs
This feature is part of Moodle Workplace™, which is available through Moodle Certified Partners and Service Providers only.

Use Case 1: Onboarding of new staff

Coming soon...

Use Case 2: Program with courses released periodically

Use case: Users have to be certified once, that is without re-certification, and certification expires after a specified period.

Example: A program contains 12 courses and on every 1st of a month a course should be released. Course 1 will be released on 1st of January, course 2 on 1st of February, course 3 on the 1st of March, and so on.

Solution: Make use of the hiding course until start date feature.

  • Enable the task Show courses on start date (\core\task\show_started_courses_task). Check out Scheduled tasks for details.
  • Create your 12 courses and add them to a program
  • Give each course a start date in the future (Jan 1st, Feb 1st, Mar 1st, etc)
  • Make the courses invisible

Once the start date for each course has been reached, it will become visible to users who are assigned to the program.
